Does not follow symlinks (anymore)? #155

I am not sure if it worked in the past, I think it did. If it has anything to do with node version or this package, but it does not work when I point it to a relative path in a symlinked directly.

I also switched from SUSE to Ubuntu and from ext4 to ZFS, but I do not think that is the cause.

It works (again) if I use an absolute path.

This package uses the Node native fs.readFileSync and fs.readFile, so if any symlinks are not working that is likely an environmental issue, not related to this package specifically.
